off. When the SP OFF is selected, no sound is output from the
speakers connected to this receiver.
VSX-1022 only: If you selected Surr.Back in The Speaker System
setting (VSX-1022 only) on page 49, you can switch between
speakers using the

the button will simply switch your main speaker terminal on or

Press repeatedly to choose a speaker terminal option:

the A-speaker terminals and PRE OUT SURR BACK/FRONT
HEIGHT (VSX-822 only) (multichannel playback is possible).
SPB (VSX-1022 only) – Sound is output from the two
speakers connected to the B-speaker terminals (only stereo
playback is possible).
SPAB (VSX-1022 only) – Sound is output from the A-
speaker terminals, the two speakers in the B-speaker
terminals, and the subwoofer. Multichannel sources are
downmixed only when the STEREO or STEREO ALC mode
is selected for stereo output from A- and B-speaker
terminals.
SP – No sound is output from the speakers.
Note
VSX-1022 only: The subwoofer output depends on the
settings you made in Speaker Setting
on page 46. However,
if SPB is selected above, no sound is heard from the
subwoofer (the LFE channel is not downmixed).
All speaker terminals are switched off (SP) when
headphones are connected. SPB can be selected even
when headphones are connected for VSX-1022.
Making cable connections
Make sure not to bend the cables over the top of this unit (as
shown in the illustration). If this happens, the magnetic field
produced by the transformers in this unit may cause a
humming noise from the speakers.
Important
Before making or changing connections, switch off the
power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.
Before unplugging the power cord, switch the power into
standby.
HDMI cables
Both video and sound signals can be transmitted
simultaneously with one cable. If connecting the player and
the TV via this receiver, for both connections, use HDMI
cables.
Be careful to connect the terminal in the proper direction.
Note
Set the HDMI parameter in Setting the Audio options on
page 36 to THRU (THROUGH) and set the input signal in
Selecting the audio input signal
on page 25 to HDMI, if you
want to hear HDMI audio output from your TV (no sound
will be heard from this receiver).
If the video signal does not appear on your TV, try adjusting
the resolution settings on your component or display. Note
that some components (such as video game units) have
resolutions that may not be displayed. In this case, use a
(analog) composite connection.
When the video signal from the HDMI is 480i, 480p, 576i or
576p, Multi Ch PCM sound and HD sound cannot be
received.
